Mr khalid zamir

This is simple bin design. Structural engineers designs lot of bins in your country. No body will taught you simple structural engineering in this forum. However in case you are facing any problem in design that can be discussed in this forum.

you can refer structural engineering hand books or codes of your country for designing bins.

Dear Mr.Khalid,

In the FORUM, it is not possible to give you any calculation. Many books & standards are available. You may consult BIN DESIGN BY GAYLORD & GAYLORD.

Be very carefull with bin design

You should refer to the design standards that exist eg Australian Standards and other that refer to bins/silos for bulk materials handling.

There are design cases that must be considered.

There were some silos designed in Asia that had to be either post built reinforrnced or demolished and re built due to the lack of experience of the design team and the eagerness of the owners to get a cheap price.

There is no substiture for experience and expertise.

Cheers
